OXIDATIVE BURST IN RESPONSE TO PATHOGEN ATTACKS IN A RED ALGA PYROPIA TENERA

An abstract of a study by Da Jeong Lee et al examining the role of respiratory burst oxidase homologues (RBOH) in defence responses in Pyropia tenera using Diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) is presented. Results showed that DPI-pretreated P. tenera had enhanced infection compared to the control, suggesting...

Description
Summary:An abstract of a study by Da Jeong Lee et al examining the role of respiratory burst oxidase homologues (RBOH) in defence responses in Pyropia tenera using Diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) is presented. Results showed that DPI-pretreated P. tenera had enhanced infection compared to the control, suggesting that the RBOH protein was involved in defence responses to pathogens.
